Rebecca Smyth is a recent Food and Nutrition graduate from Ulster University who is very passionate about nutrition and improving health. Her main career goal is to help make a difference to the health and wellbeing of the population and aims to pursue this after she completes her Masters in Health Promotion & Public Health.

She is a keen writer and won the VOYA Prize for Best Final Year Research Project in her final year as an Undergraduate student. Through her degree, Rebecca has gained an insight into all aspects of Food and Nutrition including Microbiology, Nutrition Through The Lifecycle, Food Product Development and how to conduct a scientific Research Project. She also gained practical experience while out on placement which has been valuable in giving her an insight into the world of work.

Rebecca has also achieved all three Duke of Edinburgh Award’s – Bronze, Silver and just recently Gold which have also been a valuable addition to her CV. She particularly benefited from improving her confidence and teamwork skills, which are both valuable assets going forward in public health.

She has recently started working alongside Professor Dr Melania A. Duca-Canavan (Head of the International Biopsysis Psychoanalysis Institute and Founder of MC International Events Planning Limited) who gave her the opportunity to work with athletes to help them adopt a more integrated approach to finding health solutions, as well as allowing her to gain an insight into the field of Psychology (which she studied briefly through her degree) and Psychoanalysis.

Rebecca is looking forward to completing her Masters degree and getting one step closer to achieving her career goal – to make a difference to the health of the population.
